Cavs get: Patrick Williams and Dalen Terry
Bulls get: Caris LeVert, Georges Niang and two 2nds ('25 Bucks, '27 Nuggets)
Why?
Cavs add wings with size. Williams is a gamble with upside and Terry is young, has great length and an improving shooter. We also duck the tax with this trade.
Bulls dump Williams after signing him to a lucrative deal. They get an expiring, a small contract and some 2nds.

Cavs get: Cam Johnson
Nets get: Caris LeVert, Jaylon Tyson, '30 unprotected swap, '31 unprotected first and 4 2nds
Why?
Cavs go all in, finally get a big wing.
Nets get a decent return. A good prospect, an expiring, and two high variable firsts.

Cavs get: Patrick Williams and Dalen Terry
Bulls get: Simone Fontecchio, Georges Niang and 2 2nds ('25 Bucks, '27 Nuggets) .
Pistons get: Max Strus
Why?
I feel like this trade benefits all sides. Cavs need size at the wing, they address that in this trade.
Chicago dumps Patrick Williams, who just signed a pretty juicy 5-year contract. They also get some good role players and a couple 2nd rounders, and finally, they save some money.
Detroit adds a veteran shooter who played for Bickerstaff.
You could swap Strus for LeVert, but I honestly think LeVert is far more important than Strus. Also, LeVert played for Atkinson when he was in Brooklyn, there is some familiarity there.

Detroit is already overloaded with wings. Simone fits the rotation better.
30 Nov 2024 15:01:27
Cavs get: Patrick Williams, Dalen Terry and Adam Sanogo
Bulls get: Max Strus, Jaylon Tyson, Emoni Bates, '30 pick swap, '31 unprotected first and 2 2nds ('25 Bucks, '27 Nuggets)
Why?
Cleveland adds size on the wing.
Bulls get a solid rebuilding package.

Cavs trade: Caris LeVert, Jaylon Tyson and '25 Bucks srp
Bulls trade: Patrick Williams and Dalen Terry
Why?
Cavs gamble on Williams, adding size on the wing. Terry is intriguing as well.
Bulls unload Williams without attaching a premium asset, get a solid guard prospect and a high 2nd rounder in a strong draft.
Trade is possible after Dec 15th.

How was my ESPN fantasy basketball salary cap draft? Please rate my team from 1-10, 7 or higher is good. Thinking about trading Tre Jones for a Center. I thought players could be listed in multiple positions.
Thanks for taking your time to rate my team. Appreciate everyone's feedback.
Do you think I can win the championship with that roster?
NO. PLAYER OFFER AMOUNT
20 Chet Holmgren OKC, PF $23
25 Mikal Bridges Bkn, SF $38
29 Andrew Wiggins GS, SF $5
32 Zion Williamson NO, PF $22
36 Russell Westbrook LAC, PG $6
38 Donovan Mitchell Cle, SG $37
40 Marcus Smart Mem, SG $3
45 Darius Garland Cle, PG $25
56 Tre Jones SA, PG $2
66 Aaron Gordon Den, PF $3
69 Spencer Dinwiddie Bkn, SG $7
71 Evan Mobley Cle, PF $12
87 Jarrett Allen Cle, C $4.
1.) 30 Aug 2023 05:07:59
I would say it's pretty average so 5.
2.) 31 Aug 2023 21:27:01
do the numbers mean you took zion 32nd for 22$? seems kinda odd you didnt get a pick on the top 20, but maybe im just misinformed on the format.
I think this is a super solid team:
Holmgren/ Allen
Zion/ Mobley/ Gordon
Bridges/ Wiggins
Mitchell/ Smart/ Dinwiddie
Garland/ Westbrook/ Jones
Lots of good depth. Only thing is you don't have a top-10 star, maybe Mitchell can be that guy? IDK
depth 9/ 10
firepower 8/ 10
shooting 8/ 10
defense 8.5/ 10
injury prone 6/ 10
overall 39.5/ 50 = 7.8 / 10.

Please remove the one that was posted & replace it with the last one I sent. Thanks & sorry for the inconvenience.
{Ed001's Note - I can't, I deleted it as I thought they were the same on a quick look. If you send it in again I can do that for you.}

Wow, that was a wild trade deadline!
Who do y'all have as winners?
I got the Nets. They got the most out of their superstars in terms of value. I think they'll still be competitive, they have some very interesting pieces & a decent coach.
1.) 10 Feb 2023 02:48:03
I like the Net, Lakers, and Blazers.
2.) 10 Feb 2023 14:21:18
Not really sure what Portland accomplished. Got a first for flipping Hart into Thybulle? Seemed pretty "meh" to me.
3.) 10 Feb 2023 19:28:08
It wasn’t great, but I’m much happier they decided to turn vets into assets than assets into vets. They weren’t contending. Might as well stock up and see what the offseason can bring.
4.) 11 Feb 2023 03:26:45
Hart is decent but like Bmiller said they aren’t contending. I very intrigued to see Reddish get pt and an opportunity to get steady minutes. I assume he will start at the 3 or be a major bench contributor. Thybulle also adds youth and elite defense.
03 Jan 2023 03:13:53
Donovan Mitchell scored 71 points in a close overtime victory over the Bulls!
Historic performance, first ever 70-10 game. He was 2 rebounds shy of a triple double.
1.) 03 Jan 2023 16:36:09
Arguably the 2nd best regular season game of all time.
2.) 03 Jan 2023 21:32:28
Wilt's 100 and Kobe's 81. Which one is not making the cut, NBA16?
3.) 04 Jan 2023 00:05:51
I honestly have it slightly over Kobe’s
71/ 8/ 11 FG:65% 3pt:46% 20FTM
81/ 6/ 2 FG:60% 3pt:53% 18FTM
Cavs/ Bulls game was also very close and Mitchell wasn’t left open as the Raps did Kobe in 4th.
4.) 04 Jan 2023 22:50:26
Idk if Wilts can ever be topped. 100 & 25, and no telling how many blocks (prolly had a triple double)
09 Dec 2022 19:15:45
The Sacramento Kings did something that went under the radar. They traded a '24 first round pick that is protected through 2026, which means they can't trade any first-round picks until '28 as long as the pick hasn't conveyed.
That is a smart move for a franchise with a shaky past. It eliminates any chance of them mortgaging their future for a star.
We've seen teams trade all their future firsts end in disaster, like the Nets-Boston transaction.
1.) 09 Dec 2022 23:22:01
Ya it’s great! Fart noise.
2.) 10 Dec 2022 03:08:09
Yea, the Kings GM has done a great job getting Sabonis, getting expiring contracts, flipping those contracts + a protected first for Huerter, and then signing Monk away from the competition (Lakers) as well as hiring Mike Brown away from the competition (Golden State) .
The Kings seriously need to extend GM Monte McNair's contract that expires at the end of this season. Then focus on extensions for Sabonis and Monk.
It seems like the only "poor" move the GM has done may have been signing Rashaun Holmes to that 4 yr/ $48 mil (last year a Player Option) contract. But if that is the only bad move, we can live with that.
I seriously think that McNair could be in running for Executive of the Year. GM Danny Ainge and David Griffin/ Trajan Langdon would be the competition in my book.

@Fredman honestly, $12 million per season is pretty reasonable. They can easily move on from him if they don't want him.
11 Jan 2025 12:35:02
Fair for both sides. Would be interesting to see how GSW would play with a legit big man for once.
10 Jan 2025 20:52:11
Not sure if realistic, perhaps favors Toronto, but Olynyk for Richards and Micic is a pretty nice trade for the Raptors.
09 Jan 2025 20:43:53
It's a fair offer. The first overall pick, plus some more players and assets. Might be a hard offer to beat.
09 Jan 2025 20:43:01
I don't hate this for Cleveland. Very reasonable, just not completely sold on Wiggins.
09 Jan 2025 20:41:53
I think the Heat will end up disappointed with the return they get.
16 Feb 2023 21:49:16
Mike Bibby was a big part of those fun Sacramento Kings teams. I don't know if he had all-star accolades, but he certainly passed the eye test.
05 Jan 2023 15:33:08
1)Fox
2)Sabonis
3)Mobley
4)D Mitchell
5)Zion
6)Paul George
7)SGA
8)Anfernee Simmons
9)Dejounte Murray
10)Mathurin.
15 Dec 2022 17:23:03
Harris+Ross+Franz Wagner+Return Chicago
That's a massive overpay. I wouldn't trade Wagner straight up for LaVine.
10 Dec 2022 18:50:57
The Mavs need to do something fast, or else Luka is going to demand a trade. Losing Brunson was a big blow to that franchise.
10 Dec 2022 18:49:37
@Fredman honestly, $12 million per season is pretty reasonable. They can easily move on from him if they don't want him.
